An example of a large 4 bedroom acreage property 20 minutes outside of Edmonton: The executor requested that the interior and exterior of the property be cleaned up and cleared out entirely in preparation for sale. The estate required all the contents – Appliances, all furniture, mattresses, shelves, tables, linen, clothes, books, plates, food etc. removed. Along with carpets removed, damaged hardwood and all curtains.
The second stage of the estate clean up involved exterior aspects including removing all yard equipment, workshop contents, and large machinery. The home’s gutters and backyard were thoroughly weeded, pet waste and random bricks removed, grass trimmed, trees cut and made into a neat, presentable condition.
The Junk Guys are capable of re-setting a property to a sellable condition. The standard of our work will ensure a presentable property to prospective buyers. We guarantee a significant change to the property’s appearance and value.

No, we do not provide an itemized list of all items removed during an estate clean-out. Our primary role is to remove and dispose of unwanted items. While we understand that some families may want a detailed list of all items that were removed, this is not something that we offer. We do our best to be transparent and communicate clearly throughout the process, but our focus is on providing efficient and thorough removal services rather than documentation. That being said, if there are specific items that a family wants to keep or are unsure about, we are happy to set those aside for them. Our goal is always to ensure that the estate clean-out process is as smooth and stress-free as possible for everyone involved, and we are willing to work with families to meet their specific needs and concerns.
Our estate clean-out services are available during business hours from Monday to Sunday, 8 AM to 8 PM. We do not offer 24/7 availability.

The timeline for an estate clean-out project can vary depending on a number of factors, including the size of the estate, the number of items to be sorted through, the preferences of the family or estate administrators, and any legal requirements that may apply. We will typically come in toward the end of the project to remove and dispose of unwanted items. The timeline for this stage will depend on the number of items to be removed. It's important to note that estate clean-outs often involve a range of tasks beyond just the removal of unwanted items, such as sorting through and organizing personal belongings, packing and moving items to new locations or storage facilities, selling or donating unwanted items, and disposing of any remaining items that are no longer needed. The specific timeline for an estate clean-out will depend on the unique circumstances of the project.
